When Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice launched on the eShop this week, new 3DS themes were also made available. You can get a close look at them below.

Even though Capcom brought Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice to the 3DS eShop yesterday, the development blogs haven’t finished. The latest one can be read here.

The new entry has input from Naoyuki Tsuchiya, a designer who specializes in logos and packaging. Programmer Momoko Hirata participated as well. The blog goes over logo creation as well as programming.

GameSpot has shared a few more minutes of footage from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice. View the video below, showcasing the game’s first few minutes.

According to the official Japanese broadcast schedule for Monster Hunter Stories: Ride On, the show will begin broadcasting in Japan on October 2nd, at 8:30 AM.

Following in the footsteps of the Ace Attorney anime, which is currently streaming on Crunchyroll, the Monster Hunter Stories anime is being released to help promote the new Monster Hunter Stories 3DS game.

I won’t dance around saying that Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice is kind of a mess, albeit a lovable one. If you think too hard about the overall plot, setting aside a few genuinely good and surprising twists, it’s full of laughably bad inconsistencies and weak writing choices. However, if you shut that part of your brain off – the one that checks for internal consistency – and focus on the moment-to-moment mystery plot and absurdity of what unfolds in these courtrooms, then it’s a much better experience. In other words, Spirit of Justice is yet another Ace Attorney game made in the absence of series creator Shu Takumi.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice is available on the 3DS eShop today. If you buy the game during the first week, you can receive a free character costume pack featuring Furio Tigre for Phoenix, a school uniform for Apollo, and a Trés Bien waitress costume for Athena. After September 14, the DLC will cost $0.99 / £0.89 / €0.99.

Capcom will release new Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice throughout the rest of September each Thursday. Two short stories are on the way, each of which has a unique pixel art 3DS theme. A full-length extra episode titled “Turnabout Time Traveler” is also on the way.

Here’s the schedule:

9/15 – “Phoenix Wright: Asinine Attorney” short story and 3DS theme ($3.99 / £3.59 / €3.99)
9/22 – “Apollo Justice: Asinine Attorney” short story and 3DS theme ( $3.99 / £3.59 / €3.99)
9/29 – “Turnabout Time Traveler” full-length extra episode ($5.99 / £5.39 / €5.99)
